Willow Smith Finally Whipping Up Debut Album?

Pint-sized pop starlet Willow Smith rocked her way onto Billboard charts with her 2010 top 10 smash ‘Whip My Hair’.  While the followup, ’21st Century Girl’, did not match the success of its predecessor, it certainly helped solidify the buzz surrounding the singer’s debut.

Now, nearly a year later, news is finally surfacing on what the youngest of the Smith clan has been cooking up.  Speaking with MTV News, Ronald “Jukebox” Jackson – the craftsman behind Willow’s introductory hit – dished on his work on the upcoming album.

What can fans expect next from the self-proclaimed Roc Nation ‘rock star’?  Find out after the jump:

    I’d sooner buy a Willow Smith CD than Rihanna. Real talk. (And I’m not trying to buy a Willow Smith CD).

  2. Jey September 23, 2011

    Yeah, id rather buy it than a Metallica too. Cause you know, I like comparing to artist I dont even like.

  3. Those That Cannot Do, Stan September 23, 2011

    That first single was amazing in terms of success and actually being good and popular even among older listeners…but yeah…I don’t think it’s really going to pop off like that.

    im so impressed but jayz and that whole team over there , did you hear what he said “shes a little girl she still has to have a life” so happy there not just rushing her out to make a quick dollar …but yeah i agree with everyone at top ill def. buy her album over rihanna because willow can really sing.

  6. i’m a billy goat…baa “girl have several seats” September 23, 2011

    Honestly, this pint-sized charcter needs to sit! I cannot believe DefSCAM refused to capitalize on her initial buzz.. Of course being Will and Jada’s child she will get over but I think its just too little too late to make a real impact. Oh well, what do I know? “Kanye shrug*

    some things Willow Smith must do before releasing an Album

    1 take some vocal lessons (she screams not sings)

    2 take a “creative writing” class or something so she knows how to formulate a proper song

    3 take a LONG trip to the suburbs to see how urbanized little black,white,and latino kids dress and how they MATCH AND ACCESORIZE

    4 take a LONGER walk to the HOOD to learn how to dance, the E N D

  11. Tru Voice September 23, 2011

    @LOL… I agree!!! lmao!!!

    But Forget that list, How bout making it to a senior in high school first????

    or losing all her baby teeth???

    Maybe catching up in math since she said she wasn’t strong in it.

    #JUSTSAYING

    But I did enjoy Whip my Hair. I think it might be too late for an album. But she has her whole life, let the girl mature then come back and give it another try.

  12. Y’all Are Too Fake September 23, 2011

    Willow Slays Rihanna.

  13. JAMIR21: I LOVE THE ILLUMINATI (BRITNEY, BEYONCE, RIHANNA, GAGA, AND NICKI) !!!! September 23, 2011

  15. LMFAO September 23, 2011

    She needs vocal lessons but she is talented….not a beyonce gaga and so on

    but better then ciara and ashanti keri christina millian with vocal lessons and rihanna lol

    Awww I forgot all about Lil Willow! I was wondering if she was gonna ever release an album. Not that I am checking for it but that is the next step after you have a smash single. It’s been so damn long I almost forgot all about her.

    It’s no secret ‘Whip My Hair’ was a hit. It just came out of nowhere and surprised the hell out of everybody I can see why the are still recording music, I just it would be best if she waited a lil bit longer before she puts herself out there completely as an artist. She is soo young and even though she has had success as already, and her parents are freaking superstars, I just think waiting until she is at least a teenager would benefit her more. By then her voice will have matured and we can get the full scale of her as an artist.

    But judging by this interview it looks like they have already moved foreward in recording and perparing for an album release. She is signed to Roc Nation so I guess they are eager to start making money off of her. Hmph. I still think that label is shady as hell!

    If she does release an album some time soon she might sell though. She appeals to the kiddies so their parents might buy her album for their children. I guess we shall see.

  18. YOOSONDALOOSE September 24, 2011

  21. nice_gurl September 24, 2011

    She’s too young to be doing all this. She should wait until she’s at least 15.
